Three Dimensional Structure Prediction of Fatty Acid Binding Site on Human Transmembrane Receptor CD36

CD36 is an integral membrane protein which is thought to have a hairpin-like structure with alpha-helices at the C and N terminals projecting through the membrane as well as a larger extracellular loop. This receptor interacts with a number of ligands including oxidized low density lipoprotein and l...
